Report number 22, September 27, 2018 For the Period September 18 to 24, 2018

Another wet and cool week has significantly slowed harvest operations in the province. Sixty-eight per cent of the crop is now in the bin, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s weekly Crop Report. The five-year (2013-2017) average is 64 per cent for this time of year. Rain was recorded throughout most of the province through the week. Up to 15 cm of snow was reported in some areas in the central regions. Harvest is most advanced in the southwestern region, where 88 per cent of the crop is now combined. The southeastern region has 87 per cent combined, the west-central 59 per cent and the east-central region 58 per cent combined. The northeastern region has 34 per cent combined, while the northwestern region has 27 per cent combined.

Ninety-seven per cent of the lentils, 96 per cent of the field peas, 82 per cent of the durum, 53 per cent of spring wheat, 48 per cent of the canola and 28 per cent of the flax have now been combined. With the late-season rain and snow, topsoil moisture conditions have improved across the province. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as four per cent surplus, 58 per cent adequate, 32 per cent short and six per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 48 per cent adequate, 42 per cent short and 10 per cent very short. The majority of crop damage was due to lodging, while rain and snow caused quality loss.

One year ago Rain showers delayed harvest

for producers in the north regions where 50 per cent of harvest was complete. Rain

was welcomed by those in the dry south regions of the

province.

Southeastern Saskatchewan:

Crop District 1 – Carnduff, Estevan, Redvers, Moosomin and Kipling areas Crop District 2 – Weyburn, Milestone, Moose Jaw, Regina and Qu’Appelle areas Crop District 3ASE – Radville, Minton and Lake Alma areas

Some producers were able to get into the fields to combine in between rain showers. The majority of the grain was combined tough. Eighty-seven per cent of the crop is in the bin, up from 84 per cent last week. The five-year average (2013-2017) for this time of year is 69 per cent combined. The Kisbey area reported 40 mm of rain for the week, the Frobisher area 18 mm, the Kipling area 29 mm, the Broadview area 7 mm, the Weyburn area 23 mm, the Moose Jaw area 30 mm, the Wilcox area 6 mm and the Ceylon area 41 mm. Approximately 10 cm of snow was reported in the Carnduff, Broadview, Weyburn, and Alida areas. Indian Head reported 17 cm of snow. Topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as 55 per cent adequate, 38 per cent short and seven per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 50 per cent adequate, 42 per cent short and eight per cent very short. Next spring, the late-season moisture will benefit pastures that had significant grazing pressure during the summer. The majority of crop damage this past week is due to rain causing potential grade losses. There are still concerns regarding the lack of feed and the risk of grass fires in many parts of the region. Producers are busy moving cattle and baling straw.

Southwestern Saskatchewan: Crop District 3ASW – Coronach, Assiniboia and Ogema areas Crop District 3AN – Gravelbourg, Mossbank, Mortlach and Central Butte areas Crop District 3B – Kyle, Swift Current, Shaunavon and Ponteix areas Crop District 4 – Consul, Maple Creek and Leader areas

A damp week slowed harvest progress. Eighty-eight per cent of the crop has been combined, up from 86 per cent last week and well ahead of the five-year (2013-2017) average of 77 per cent for this time of year. Rain was reported in most of the region. Even though the rain interfered with producers trying to finish harvest, the rain has at least started to green-up some pastures and hay land that were very much need in of moisture after a very dry summer. The Fife Lake area reported 48 mm of rain, the Limerick area 21 mm, the Mortlach area 8 mm, the Hazenmore area 23 mm, the Success area 6 mm, the Tyner area 16 mm, the Gull Lake area 26 mm and the Leader area 10 mm. The Vanguard area has recorded the most rainfall (265 mm) in the area since April 1. The Kyle area has reported the least amount of rainfall in the region since April 1 (102 mm). Topsoil moisture conditions have improved significantly over the past couple of weeks. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as 34 per cent adequate, 55 per cent short and 11 per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture conditions are rated as 24 per cent adequate, 63 percent short and 13 per cent very short. Producers are busy combining when weather allows, baling straw, hauling bales, moving cattle and controlling weeds. East-Central Saskatchewan:

Crop District 5 – Melville, Yorkton, Cupar, Kamsack, Foam Lake, Preeceville and Kelvington areas

Crop District 6A – Lumsden, Craik, Watrous and Clavet areas Fields have been fairly quiet over the past few weeks as producers wait for sunny and dry weather to allow them to continue with harvest. There were reports of some combines rolling during the past week, mostly on canola and wheat. Fifty-eight per cent of the crop is now in the bin, up from 55 per cent last week. This is just slightly ahead of the five-year (2013-2017) average of 55 per cent for this time of year. Of the crop that was combined this past week, the majority of it was taken off tough or damp and put into driers. Up to 15 cm of snow was reported in some areas of the region. The Esterhazy area received 25 mm of rain, Kelliher area 15 mm, the Yorkton area 8 mm, the Kuroki area 20 mm, the Earl Gray area 10 mm and the Semans area 38 mm. The Langenburg area has received the most precipitation (434 mm) in the region since April 1. Topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as seven per cent surplus, 62 per cent adequate, 26 per cent short and five per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture conditions are rated as two per cent surplus, 52 per cent adequate, 33 percent short and 13 per cent very short.

Crop reporters have indicated that the recent rain will most likely have an effect on crop quality by causing bleaching and staining. The snow has caused crops to lodge. There has been some seeding of winter cereals. Producers are busy trying to combine and hauling hay bales. West-Central Saskatchewan:

Crop District 6B – Hanley, Outlook, Loreburn, Saskatoon and Arelee areas Crop District 7A – Rosetown, Kindersley, Eston and Major areas Crop District 7B – Kerrobert, Macklin, Wilkie and Biggar areas

Combines have been parked for about two weeks in most of the region due to overcast days, rain and snow, although some producers were able to get out and get a few acres done. Fifty-nine per cent of the crop is combined, up from 57 per cent last week. The five-year (2013-2017) average for this time of year is 66 per cent combined. Rain ranged from trace amounts (Outlook area) to 36 mm (Perdue area). The Dinsmore area received 10 mm, the Marengo area 31 mm, the Biggar area 15 mm and the Phippen area 18 mm. The Perdue area has received the most precipitation (381 mm) in the region since April 1. Dinsmore has received the least amount of rain (90 mm) since April 1. Snow, ranging from 5 to 25 cm, was reported throughout the region. Although the rain and snow have stalled harvest, the moisture has helped replenish topsoil moisture. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as two per cent surplus, 74 per cent adequate, 21 per cent short and three per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 53 per cent adequate, 37 per cent short and 10 per cent very short. Rain and snow have caused crop damage and grade losses due to sprouting, bleaching and lodging. There have been a few reports of geese starting to move in on swathed crops. Producers are busy trying to combine and haul hay. Northeastern Saskatchewan:

Crop District 8 – Hudson Bay, Tisdale, Melfort, Carrot River, Humboldt, Kinistino, Cudworth and Aberdeen areas

Crop District 9AE – Prince Albert, Choiceland and Paddockwood areas Another cool and damp week has held up harvest in most areas of the region. Some swathing and combining has occurred in between rain showers, and where less moisture was reported. Crops that were taken off in the last couple of weeks have been tough and damp and are being aerated and dried in storage. Thirty-four per cent of the crop is now combined, up from 29 per cent last week. The five-year (2013-2017) average of 53 per cent for this time of year. Rainfall ranged from none (Spruce Home area) to 32 mm (Vonda area). The Nipawin area received 8 mm, the Humboldt area 20 mm, the Melfort area 27 mm, the Kinistino area 6

mm and the Prince Albert area 9 mm. The Nipawin area has received the most precipitation (417 mm) in the region since April 1. Cropland topsoil moisture is currently rated as six per cent surplus, 81 per cent adequate and 13 per cent short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 90 per cent adequate and 10 per cent short. Geese are starting to show up on swathed crops. The wet weather has caused bleaching, staining and sprouting in some crops. Grain dryers are running constantly to bring the crop moisture down for safe storage. Producers are busy hauling hay and waiting for weather conditions to improve. Northwestern Saskatchewan:

Crop District 9AW – Shellbrook, North Battleford, Big River and Hafford areas Crop District 9B – Meadow Lake, Turtleford, Pierceland, Maidstone and

Lloydminster areas Cool, cloudy and wet weather has continued to slow harvest in the region, although some producers have been able to get out and do some harvesting. Crops that were harvested this past week were put into the bin tough and then dried. Twenty-seven per cent of the crop has been put in the bin, up from 17 per cent last week, but behind the five-year (2013-2017) average of 53 percent for this time of year. Rainfall ranged from none (Barthel area) to 62 mm (North Battleford area). The Hafford area reported 4 mm, the Duck Lake area 15 mm, the Spiritwood area 29 mm, the Glaslyn area 20 mm and the Lloydminster area 5 mm. An extended break in the cool and wet weather is needed for harvest to continue. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as eight per cent surplus, 67 per cent adequate, 18 per cent short and seven per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as two per cent surplus, 67 per cent adequate, 24 per cent short and seven per cent very short. Crop damage this past week is attributed mostly to cool and wet weather which has caused crops to lodge, making them difficult to pick up. Bleaching and staining are causing quality losses over the past few weeks. Geese are starting to move onto mature crops. Producers are waiting for some good weather to allow them to continue harvesting. A good week of sunny and dry weather will be needed before harvest can continue.
